By Selwyn Duke The Atlanta government may not yet be burning books, but they sure burned a man who wrote one. The Georgia city’s mayor, Kasim Reed, announced Tuesday that he had terminated Fire Chief Kelvin Cochran. The reason? Cochran expressed disapproval of homosexual behavior in a self-published book. The chief had already endured a…

By Selwyn Duke New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio is notorious for giving his black son “the talk” — a warning about how his race will cause police to react to him. But it now appears his talk should have been in the nature of a reassurance, because a scientific study indicates that police are…

By Selwyn Duke White is right — in activists’ book. That is, the right color to ignore when it comes to stories of people shot by police. So says American Thinker editor Rick Moran while reporting on the shooting of a pellet-gun wielding white man on Sunday by San Francisco police. The Washington Post describes the…

By Selwyn Duke “Islam in a man is like rabies in a dog,” said famed British statesman Winston Churchill. “Islam is a religion of peace,” said contemporary British statesman David Cameron.

Now some German politicians and religious leaders are recommending that Muslim “carols” be sung in some of their institutions — their churches — during Christmas services.

By Selwyn Duke “They have blood on their hands,” said former NYC police commissioner Bernard Kerik, of Mayor Bill de Blasio, Al Sharpton and “all those who encouraged this anti-cop, racist mentality.” He was, of course, commenting on the heinous assassinations of the two NYPD officers this weekend. “All those who encouraged,” by the way,…

By Selwyn Duke Pudgy and profligate little Kim Jong-un must be swelling with pride. With the FBI now concluding that North Korea was responsible for the recent computer hacking of Sony Corporation, it appears that Kim has succeeded in projecting power beyond his borders in, essentially, censoring a Western film. That work, of course, is…

By Selwyn Duke “What do we want? Dead cops! When do we want it? Now!” That was the chant of protesters in New York City just over a week ago. Sadly, they have now gotten their wish: Two NYC police officers were shot dead Saturday — execution style — in what the killer described as an…
